Update: “Says You!” Holland Trip

Popular “Says You!” panelist Tony Kahn and his wife, author Harriet Reisen, will lead the “Says You!” trip to Holland (April 17-25) instead of creator/host Richard Sher. In his multifaceted career Tony Kahn has lent his talents to several public broadcasting landmarks. He was the first host of PRI’s “The World”, the original writer for ZOOM and narrator of a dozen NOVA programs. His NPR documentary drama Blacklisted, about the Hollywood blacklist of the 1950s, tells a story inseparable from that of Tony’s own family. Among his other productions is the long-running podcast series WGBH Morning Stories, which you can hear at tonykahn.com.

Tony’s wife Harriet Reisen will also join us on the cruise. She is best known for her highly praised biography Louisa May Alcott: The Woman Behind Little Women, which The Wall Street Journal named one of 2009’s Standout Selections. Her documentary based on the book won awards at several festivals and premiered on PBS stations last December. (www.alcottfilm.com)

The Holland trip was coordinated by our client Cross-Culture Journeys (www.ccjourneys.com). The trip is sold out.
